It's always easy for anyone to judge until you find yourself in that situation. In those moments, you're under pressure to do the right thing right away so you don't regret it later, but you can't know exactly what will happen after your choice, what could have happened otherwise, and your emotions are influencing your choices.

Part of the reason I think it happens is the comparison of where the characters started vs how they grew and ended up. People praise Rigby because he went from essentially being *the main issue* in most instances, with zero self awareness or consideration for others….to a really decent guy, who even went as far as to get his diploma to feel worthy of Eileen Meanwhile, Mordecai just kinda stays stagnant….because he starts out the series decent. The *only* real growth Mordecai *can* have is when it comes to girls, because that was his biggest character flaw. And that flaw gets fleshed out more and more as the series goes on and Rigby *is improving* It results in this situation where Rigby starts out the show as a 1, and climbs up to a 6 or 7…….meanwhile Mordecai starts the show as a safe 8 and ends it as a 6. Rigby had flaws that were improved as the series went on….Mordecais flaws (as few as they may have been) developed more as the series went on

@@moar_nightsong To be fair, while it was petty and selfish, it’s still somewhat understandable.

She’s a bad person for going after someone she knows is taken, but it’s not her fault in the slightest, because she didn’t make a commitment with someone. That’s just a way to put blame onto a woman instead of the man who cheated, because then that means he would have never cheated if it wasn’t for the woman, basically putting all the blame onto her and lessening any consequences he could have gotten for cheating on the person he said he wanted to be with. It’s a legit thing that comes from misogyny and sexism towards women and how much men sexualize them and excuse that sexualizing behavior for being male, so everything a man does when it comes to relationships or sex, is the woman fault. Which is also why this conversation is never brought up when a woman cheats on her boyfriend with a another man who “tempted” her.

Mordecai refusing to acknowledge Rigby has been doing a bunch of solids for him, then joining in on the entire park crew making fun of him, shows exactly the kind of person he is.

[@DiddyKongVsLuigi]

I mean… Rigby is just as bad. They’re both horrible men until one of them gets blessed with an amazing woman he didn’t deserve yet. Mordecai is easier to rag on cus he’s technically the main character, and we don’t see his redemption like we did Rigby’s.

[@DiddyKongVsLuigi]

[@pyronuke4768]

Honestly I'm just baffled at why the writers thought it was a good idea to have that stupid love triangle and then that God awful ending to it. Like, are you blind? Do you not see what you are doing to your own character? It's like the longer the show went on the less fucks they gave.

[@DiddyKongVsLuigi]

@ I kind of agree, but I do tip my hat to them for nailing 20 year old V-card toxicity. Mordecai was the perfect representation of what happens when a sheltered mamas boy who never kissed a girl grows up. Idk maybe cus I kind of relate to that. I didn’t get my first kiss till my early 20’s too. I was almost as bad as Mordecai growing up. Just a pot head working at a lame job with cool friends. Eventually you meet someone (in Mordecai’s case the cut girl where he takes his break.) It sucks being inexperienced, and especially if you were spoiled growing up. (Mordecai was 1000% spoiled being an only child with a super mom.) In all honesty, I feel like we all hate on Mordecai because we all see something in him that we also see in ourselves. Its very cringe to look back at mistakes we used to make, or see someone do something we would never do today. Like hijacking your friend’s wedding to dump your girlfriend. 😂 He’s 100% flawed for sure, but so are we in our early 20s. Perfect writing if the goal was to expose toxic-entitled “nice guys.”

[@pyronuke4768]

@@DiddyKongVsLuigi personally I think the Mordecai hate is a little overblown at this point. Like, I know why people find him really infuriating, I'm one of them, but at this point I'm just so tired of these extreme black and white opinions where it feels like you have to pick one side or the other.

I can't hate characters like mordecai just because they did something bad, sometimes characters just need to do bad things for the episode to deliver what it wants to deliver, and that's true even when the character is not clearly the villain. "Good guys can do bad things" basically. Also awful things. Friends can do bad things. Words cannot describe how hard I was laughing at how you portrayed Mordecai time and time and time again cheated on his girlfriend, I never noticed. It's the funniest thing this most how he manages to make the same mistake over and over again, it's cheating to incredible proportions. TIME AND TIME AGAIN, CLIPS ARE BACK TO BACK. I am sorry, nothing I say will communicate how hilarious this was to me or how loud I was laughing

In defense of Mordecai in that Father time episode. Rigby was being a total jerk to him for most of that episode. I get Rigby was upset Mordecai blew him off but he aked out Margaret completely out of spite and to add insult to injury he was going above and beyond to rub it in Mordecai's face. Imagine your homie asks out the girl your feeling for years out of complete spite and rubs it in your face and even brags about to your other friends. I'm pretty sure most of us would be down right pissed leading to either a big fight and needing a break from the so called friendship. Mordecai was more calm than most in that situation than we give him credit for. Plus Rigby did push him first.

[@Moss-M022]

No yea Mordecai was messed up and Rigby has stated many times he’s just trying to have a good time

[@godofevil9468]

Honestly I think the funny thing is... I think they realise they made a mistake with "Lift with your back." which is what inspired their idea to make Rigby do what he did in the movie. Rigby did kinda.... lie to his best friend about a major thing, Lie to his past self and not warn him and ruin the biggest event and subsequently imprison his mentally unhealthy gym teacher causing him to conquer the universe and destroy time. Which I guess... balances out how dirty Mordecai did him in Lift with your back. But then came Rigby's graduation.

@@vibez2806 Lmao huh? Mordecai and Rigby quite literally spend most of their time together, they sleep in the same room. Mordecai only blew him off once this episode just for a chance to get with her. Rigby (in the early seasons) is extremely selfish lmao. He knew Mordecai sucked with asking her out so he did just to get a reaction out of him because he wanted to see a film with Margaret. Not only that, Rigby continuously took pot shots at Mordecai during the entire day and kept rubbing it in Mordecai’s face ALL BECAUSE HE DIDN’T WANT TO SEE A FILM WITH HIM. Its not different, Rigby was literally an asshole to Mordecai for no reason. Rigby shoved Mordecai, which in turn Mordecai did the same, but Rigby is insanely weak. Rigby kept pushing Mordecai’s buttons which finally had him snap out of anger, then he IMMEDIATELY regretted it. Rigby (at this point) would kill Mordecai with no remorse if he had the strength to, and we literally see him try with the punchies episode. You literally made your own headcanon of events and went with it, it’s hilarious.

Taking a quick glance at the comments and man, you were not wrong when you said the Morecai fans were gonna come for Rigby as soon as they so much as saw the title to this video. 😂 I'm glad I was never a part of this show's fandom. Anyway, I don't think I ever watched the whole show, but I saw enough to have an idea of how the characters and relationships progressed during the story. I knew that Rigby, insufferable and assholish as he was in the beginning, had improved significantly and I had hope Mordecai would too, since he had seemed like the less annoying of the two back then. I even remember watching part of the wedding episode and, when Rigby tells Mordecai about how he's dating Eileen, I was so happy. I thought, "Wow, Rigby is so mature and caring now, and he's pushing Mordecai to finally move past this love triangle bullshit. Finally, CJ will have nothing to worry about!" Boy, was I a fool. 🤣 CJ deserved SO much better, and the only upside about her relationship with Mordecai ending is that she might have ended up with someone who actually deserves her. 🤞
